Abstract

The current generation is concerned about lifestyle disorders and measures to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Individuals’ physical appearance, mental qualities, and illness creation are all influenced by genetic elements, according to modern science. Most diseases have a hereditary component, according to human genome studies. Genetic mutations can happen at random or as a result of an external cause. Genetic illnesses can be hereditary or not. Ayurveda is a historic Indian medical practice that dates back to the Vedic era. However, while the current knowledge of human genetics owes largely to Gregor Mendel’s work, a number of Indian writings have discussed the scientific concept of genetics before him. Although the name “genetics” was not used in Ayurveda, the concept of genetics is mentioned in several places throughout the traditional texts of Ayurveda, particularly in the Samhitas. The focus of the review is on Ayurveda’s therapeutic applications of genetics and to better understand Ayurvedic mechanisms through epigenetics.
